A refreshing cocktail made with fresh pineapple, simple syrup, rum, orange juice, Prosecco, and grenadine.


serves/makes:
  
ready in:
  2-5 hrs

ingredients

1 3/4 cup fresh pineapple, cubed
2 ounces Super Lemon Simple Syrup (see below)
4 ounces rum
1 cup orange juice
1 bottle very chilled Prosecco
3 ounces grenadine syrup
4 chunks fresh pineapple, for garnish

Super Lemon Simple Syrup

1 1/2 cup white sugar
2/3 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/4 cup water

directions

In a food processor, combine pineapple chunks and simple syrup. Process until totally smooth. Transfer to container and add rum. Stir well.

When ready to serve put 1/4 cup of pineapple/rum mixture into 14 ounce size white wine glasses. Add 1/4 cup orange juice to each glass. Put garnish on glass.

At this point have your grenadine and very cold Prosecco ready.

Pour Prosecco in each glass. It will rise to the top and then start to fall. Give each guest a glass and top off with Prosecco and immediately pour grenadine on top in a swirl.

For Super Lemon Simple Syrup: In a small sauce pan over medium-low heat, combine sugar, lemon juice and water. Stir while heating until all sugar is dissolved and mixture is not cloudy.

Cool at least 2 hours and mixture will become the consistency of maple syrup. Store in a airtight container in the fridge for use with all your drink needs.
